Summary "On Christmas Day in the Morning" by Grace S. Richmond is a sentimental short story written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around the themes of family, love, and the spirit of Christmas, portraying the longing and affection between children and their parents during the holiday season. Set against a backdrop of snowy winter, the story captures the essence of Christmas reunions and the poignant feelings associated with returning home.
